  1. 1. Marine seaweed invasions : Impacts and biotic resistance in native ecosystems

    Författare :Josefin Sagerman; Sofia Wikström; Fransisco Arenas; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Plant invasion; exotic species; generalist herbivores; plant-herbivore interactions; enemy-release hypothesis; ecosystem function; marin ekotoxikologi; Marine Ecotoxicology;

    Sammanfattning : Marine seaweeds constitute one of the most productive plant systems known on Earth and a rich fauna including juvenile fish and crustaceans is dependent on the habitats they form. Human influence on marine costal ecosystems has resulted in large scale changes to the abundance and distribution of species, where species introductions constitute an obvious part. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Marine Current Resource Assessment : Measurements and Characterization

    Författare :Nicole Carpman; Karin Thomas; Mats Leijon; Sandra Eriksson; Mairead Atcheson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; ADCP; Engineering Science with specialization in Science of Electricity; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot elektricitetslära;

    Sammanfattning : The increasing interest in converting energy from renewable resources into electricity has led to an increase in research covering the field of marine current energy, mainly concerning tidal currents and in-stream tidal turbines. Tides have the advantage of being predictable decades ahead. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Microstructure of spray dried particles at different scales of drying

    Författare :Marine Nuzzo; Livsmedelsteknik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; microstructure; morphology; confocal Raman microscopy; phase segregation; spray drying;

    Sammanfattning : Spray drying is a preferred method to produce dry powder of thermally sensitive materials such as food and pharmaceuticals. Drying conditions and formulation determine primary properties such as morphology and composition that finally provide functionality such as dissolution, encapsulation and flowability. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Non-Azeotropic Mixtures as Working Fluids in Heat Pumps: A theoretical and experimental study

    Författare :Marine Högberg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; HCFC123; HCFC124a; HCFC22; performance comparison; COP; non-azeotropic mixture; capacity; sensitivity analysis; HFC152a; heat pump; CFC114; ethyl chloride; experimental study; HCFC142b; two-stage cycle;

    Sammanfattning : Due to the fact that CFC (Chloro-Fluoro-Carbon) fluids will be forbidden as working fluids in heat pumps for environmental reasons, there is an urgent need for alternatives. As one alternative type of fluid, non-azeotropic mixtures have been suggested. This thesis deals with such mixtures. LÄS MER

  7. 5. The Spider and the Sea : Effects of marine subsidies on the role of spiders in terrestrial food webs

    Författare :Kajsa Mellbrand; Peter Hambäck; Lena Kautsky; David Wise; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; marine subsidies; food webs; stable isotopes; shore ecosystems; predators; spiders; Pardosa; algae; emerging insects; Terrestrial; freshwater and marine ecology; Terrestisk; limnisk och marin ekologi; Plant Ecology; växtekologi;

    Sammanfattning : The purpose of this study was to identify if terrestrial arthropod predators on Baltic Sea shores vary in their use of marine versus terrestrial food items, and to construct a bottom-up food web for Baltic Sea shores. The inflow of marine nutrients in the area consists mainly of marine algal detritus and emerging aquatic insects (e.g. LÄS MER
